Key Function
The Orange (top left) and Blue (top right) keys are 2
nd
keys used to activate the 2
nd
functions of
the keypad. Printed above many keys are small characters, in either orange (on the left side of
the key) or blue (on the right side of the key), that represent the 2
nd
function of that key. Using
the 2
nd
key activates the second key function. Note that the 2
nd
key only stays active for one
keystroke. Each time you need to use the 2
nd
function you must press the Orange or Blue 2
nd
key. To cancel a 2
nd
function before pressing another key, press the 2
nd
key again.
Ctrl Key Function
The Ctrl key enables the control functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a regular
keyboard’s Control key. Note that the Ctrl key only stays active for one keystroke. Each time
you need to use a Ctrl function, you need to press the Ctrl key before pressing the desired key.
Alt Key Function
The Alt key enables the alternate functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a regular
keyboard’s Alt key. Note that the Alt key only stays active for one keystroke. Each time you
need to use an alternate function, you need to press the Alt key before pressing the desired key.
Shft Key Function
The Shft key enables the shifted functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a regular
keyboard’s Shift key. Note that the Shift key only stays active for one keystroke. Each time you
need to use a Shifted function, you need to press the Shft key before pressing the desired key.
When the Shft key is pressed the next key is determined by the major key legends, i.e., the
alpha keys display lower case letters – when CAPS is On alpha characters are capitalized. For
example, when CAPS is On and the Shft key and the G key are pressed, a lower case g is
displayed.
Spc Key Function
The Spc key adds a space to the line of data on the display. This function is similar to a regular
keyboard’s Spacebar. Note that the Spc key only stays active for one keystroke.
Field Exit Function
IBM TN5250 specific keypad only. The left Scan key can be programmed as a Field Exit key.
The Field Exit key is used to exit an input field. If the field is an Auto Enter field, the auto
transmit function is activated. Refer to the
Programmable Buttons section for instruction.
